Rick, Bob and James families, I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. She was one special lady with a heart so big and so caring and her family meant everything to her along with her love of her heavenly Father All of you are in my prayers that God will give you all the peace and comfort that only he can give at this very difficult time. Keep all the memories and good times close to your heart.
My heartfelt sympathy to Ricky, Jimmy and Bobby. Shirley and my Mom – Virginia Brenneman – became friends while working at Edgewood Junior High in the kitchen. Shirley would stop at my Mom’s house before work and have coffee and a chat. These visits continued even after both had retired. Shirley was like an Aunt to me and I am shocked and saddened by her loss. My prayers for the family.
Bobby,Ricky was my class mates at Wooster high school. I meant Shirley when I was in school and she was so very nice and smiling was a welcome smile.
I’m sorry 🙏 for your lost lost guys. Losing my mother in March 2023 and still feel like yesterday. Just trust God to guide you through this process. Love your class mate. LINDA BRENNEMAN SMITH.
Rick and family. I am so sorry for your loss. I will miss my Wed breakfast buddy. She was a wonderful woman. Still have the sweaters she gave me so I could keep warm at work. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Shirley was my classmate at Plainfield High School. She always came to the school reunions and looked forward to seeing her every year. She will definitely be missed. Also, will miss her many phone calls, too. Many sympathies to her family!
To Rick, Bob and James and families, I am so sad to see this about your mother passing. I just saw this 1/14/24.
I send my sympathy and prayers. Lots of good times.
